EAST LONGMEADOW Veterans at the Soldiers’ Home in Holyoke are in for some big love ahead of Valentine’s Day this year.
An East Longmeadow family with two late loved ones who had strong ties to the beleaguered long-term care facility spearheaded a Valentine card drive, enlisting the help of many classrooms in town’s public schools.
